An anthology of Anglo-Saxon verse with the original and a facing page translation. The translations are by many different people, some of them poets in their own right. Highly recommended to anyone interested in literature from this period. ( )

Well, this is exciting: a collection of Old English poetry, translated often for the first time. I definitely need to have this book. Might wait for paperback though.
